Tom Waits, "Closing Time". I haven't been a huge fan of the
pre-Swordfishtrombones Waits, but thanks to the library I'm checking some
early stuff out.

re. #112 - right, the Tall Dwarfs are legendary purveyors of Kiwi-pop.
Their frontman Chris Knox is still going strong and puts out records
full of scruffy, energetic lo-fi tunes on a regular basis.

No, Natalie, never heard of T.Rex. (Well, the name sounded familiar when Ken
mentioned it to me, but I knew nothing about them, and I'd certainly never
heard of Bolan). So it's been an educational day all around.
Also listening to Tori -- the live version of "Upside Down".

Tom Cleland, "Deadline 2000".
This is my cousin! And this showed up out of the blue just as I was unable
to find his address, which is handy. It's pretty obviously a self done CD,
produced on a PC with mostly sound card instruments. Still, I think it's
really cool that it is possible to do this sort of thing.

Poignant Plecostomus, "Empoisson" I still prefer "touche la vache" btu it's
still a good album. Both CDs will probably be out of ciurculation soon, since
the band just had their farewell concert last night. If you want either of
them, you should buy them quickly.

preview CD of "Pick UP" by Solex. Very interesting titles. It
doesn't sound like a keeper to me.

Thanks to Ann Arbor CTN Channel 16, plenty of really old oldies.
I'm using the extra audio output of the VCR to tape monitor in, and getting
good sound without the Channel 16 video being on the TV screen. On usual
days (non-holidays) there is programming on at 10am). Currently "Rock
around The Clock" by Bill Haley and Comets is on.

Melanie's latest, "Ring the Living Bell: A Collection."
*13* new Melanie tunes, 10 old ones, 7 covers, and a bonus cut by Safka,
her kids' group. It's tremendous.
I'm going to find out what it will take to bring her to Ann Arbor. Green
Wood Coffee House could maybe rent the Michigan Theatre...

I got the Revenant release of his 1920s-1930s-ish stuff; I probably should
have gotten the Smithsonian Folkways release, just because it was recorded
to tape.
Mickey Hart, MYSTERY BOX. I thought my recent pickup of interest
in the Grateful Dead would make this Dead spinoff project
sound better. Um, nope. Good candidate for the resale pile.

The Unicorn by the Irish Rovers. "The best of the Irish Rovers"
This is stuff I listened to as a kid. I never lost my love for the Rovers
and folk music.

Pet Shop Boys -- "Very"
(the album whose title answers the unasked question: Are these guys gay? ;)
an excellent album from the "fanatically over-produced" end of the musical
spectrum..
